We examined the response of 8 patients with nephrotic syndrome (creatinine clearance 70.4 +/- 16.0 ml/min) to oral furosemide (F; 40 mg) in the absence (control) and in the presence of oral hydrochlorothiazide (HCT; 100 mg). In the 24-hour period after oral F, HCT was shown to increase urine volume and urinary sodium and chloride excretion. Increment was most significant during the 12- to 24-hour period. Enhancement of the diuresis with HCT was associated neither with a significant increase in the area under the curve of plasma F concentration nor an increase in urinary F excretion. Urinary excretion of glucuronidated F, one of the main metabolites of F, however, was decreased with HCT. In summary, HCT significantly enhanced the response to F in nephrotic patients.

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009404 Nephrotic Syndrome A condition characterized by severe PROTEINURIA, greater than 3.5 g/day in an average adult. The substantial loss of protein in the urine results in complications such as HYPOPROTEINEMIA; generalized EDEMA; HYPERTENSION; and HYPERLIPIDEMIAS. Diseases associated with nephrotic syndrome generally cause chronic kidney dysfunction.

D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.

D006852 Hydrochlorothiazide A thiazide diuretic often considered the prototypical member of this class. It reduces the reabsorption of electrolytes from the renal tubules. This results in increased excretion of water and electrolytes, including sodium, potassium, chloride, and magnesium. It is used in the treatment of several disorders including edema, hypertension, diabetes insipidus, and hypoparathyroidism.
